Paper piecing works great when making Log Cabin blocks. The blocks come out perfect every time. I love the colors you used and think the reason the applique on the other quilt doesn't work for your quilt is because it's the wrong flower. How about trying a big poppy in orange or red-orange with bits of black in the center. Could be just the thing!
